I am a bit confused and hoping someone can offer me some assistance if possible. I filed an I-130 for my husband at the VSC as a LPR- priority date was May 30, 2014. I recently became a naturalized US citizen and called the USCIS 800-number to upgrade my petition. I received an email from USCIS yesterday stating that they have upgraded my petition and that the relevant date is now my date of naturalization (Nov. 21).

Does this mean we have to wait an additional 5 months processing time for approval or will they consider the May date when I initially filed the I-130 as a LPR?
